ONLINE SEMINAR: Reframing the Ordinary: Drawing with Stuart Shils (FULL!)
LEVEL: All Levels
MEDIUM: Drawing
REFRAMING THE ORDINARY: Drawing with Stuart Shils is a three-day drawing seminar exploring the possibility of locating yourself graphically in the moment.
These three lively mornings will explore the relationship between drawing and observation, examining how close and clarified observation can hone our visually analytical minds, regardless of what it is we are looking at.
Each day will begin with either a slide talk or a guided conversation exploring issues like:
-
visual confidence
-
the meaning of simplification
-
the shaping and reshaping expectations
-
where to begin and how to begin
-
what matters on paper.
Followed by a sequence of guided exercises intended as tools for carrying back to your workaday studio lives.
This is not about recipes nor techniques but rather, addressing the evolution and structure of your own visual literacy.

"In nature, light creates the color. In the picture, color creates the light." -Hans Hoffman
In these classes we will study the language of color and each pigment’s personality
to build a personal palette. Enhance your color knowledge through exercises,
demos and by examining past and contemporary artists’ oeuvre. Understand the
mysteries and properties of color from analysis of the psychology, perception and
energy for creating dynamic, expressive and meaningful paintings. Each week we
will meet online and through video demonstrations, slide presentations, written
material, and weekly homework assignments you will strengthen your color
awareness. All media.

Cut. Paste. Construct. The Figure. with Nancy Gruskin
MEDIUM: Collage- 3D Paper and Cardboard Constructions
ALL LEVELS
ONLINE WITH LIVE MODEL THROUGH ZOOM VIDEO MEETING.
Working from a clothed model posing live on Zoom, we will make cut-paper and cut-cardboard
collages and paper and cardboard constructions of the figure. Prior to each meeting with the
model, the instructor will give a detailed list of supplies needed for that session (see the supply
list linked below for an overview). At the beginning of each live model session, the instructor will
briefly review the exercises for the day before turning the screen over to the model, who will
hold short and long poses, depending on the exercises for that day. Exercises will encourage
you to focus on gesture and shape and to experiment with materials and working methods.
There will be four sessions with the model and two sessions in which we discuss the work made
in previous weeks, go over new concepts, and examine slideshows of the work of modern and
contemporary artists. This class is intended as a springboard for your own artistic practice,
rather than as an introduction to anatomy or a specific method of working; however, beginners
are welcomed and encouraged! A computer, laptop, or large-screen tablet is advisable for
Zoom meetings, as adequately viewing the model on a smartphone screen poses a challenge.
An additional model fee of $25 will be paid to the instructor directly. All classes will be
recorded and students will have access to these recordings for the duration of the class
plus one week.

(Alchemy of Color Part I is a prerequisite to this class)
"The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of
color. Our entire being is nourished by it. This mystic quality of color should likewise find
expression in a work of art.” - Hans Hoffman
.
In Alchemy II we will delve deeper into understanding color optics, and the properties
of saturation, hue and luminosity for creating expressive and meaningful color
choices. Artists will augment their color knowledge through exercises, demos,
critiques and examining classic and contemporary art. Students are required to take
Alchemy of Color, Part I before enrolling in this class. All media.

ONLINE CLASS: The Unique Image with Kathy Deflice-Secor STARTS NEXT WEEK!
LEVEL: All Levels
Medium: Drawing and Painting with Acrylics on Paper
Explore your imagination and strengthen your mark making. Push beyond what you know and tap into your intuitive nature. Whether your work is abstract or representational, using your intuitive hand while responding to materials will bring out spontaneity and a different way to approach your work. The surface you work on can influence the outcome. Paper allows for a fresh and direct way of working. Canvas and panel provide more support for richer application of materials. This class will include working on a combination of surfaces to widen and enhance the variety of your work.
In this class, Kathy will assist you to thoughtfully explore your unique imagery. During each session there will be exercises to flex your imagination and mark-making along with demonstrations and critiques.

Contemporary art can be mystifying, but it doesn’t have to be! Each week we’ll see work by a different artist and learn about their inspiration, process, and technique.

ARTIST: MARJORIE GLICK
SIX WEEKS
April 28 - June 2, 2021
10AM-1PM ZOOM class
Celebrate the unfolding of spring by putting your watercolor impressions in a sketchbook. Because light is fleeting and flowers fade, students will supplement their sketch with reference photos. Often first impressions are a very pure and unfiltered experience of a subject and, if nothing else, it can spark joy of simply seeing and thinking about color. Working from your sketches and reference photos you take, learn to re-imagine these intuitive, observational studies into fully realized watercolors by using watercolor's unique qualities of transparency and flow and a study of color juxtapositions, layering, light and shadow.
Each week there will be a new assignment pertaining to an aspect of spring happening in real time, During the week, you'll make sketches and take reference photos. In class there will be watercolor demonstrations, time to paint, and we will discuss how to delvelop your sketches into finished watercolors.
